DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES

DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES Deuteronomy 8:1-11 Devotional:- “To teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD” (v.3) NIV      The word of God is the bank of our strength in God. The word of God is the strength of God (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 4:12). Through the word, God had done all He had done. God’s word says, without Him, nothing else was created (John 1:3). When a man, therefore, distances himself from the Word of God, such is distancing himself from his source, He will lack the strength of God.

MANIFESTATION OF GLORY

MANIFESTATION OF GLORY

Scripture Reading: Proverbs 28:10-14
Devotional:- “When the righteous rejoice, there is great glory; But when the wicked arise, men hide themselves” (V.12)

    One of the trouble of worldly living is a life void of the glory of God (Roman 3:23). Such life will be full of shame and disgrace. The devil deceives people into ungodly life through pleasure. He always wants people to think they have a high life, even when they have been destroyed (Job 31:3; Proverbs 14:12).

The manifestation of the glory of God is a life style of the righteous, because he carries the presence of God. He is greatly protected by the Lord (Psalm 34:7, Job 1:8). So, evil does not come around his life and family. The manifestation of the glory of God is the beauty and the honour that is always present wherever the godly people gather. While the unrighteous gather to celebrate but end up in fighting and rioting. The righteous have and glory in their celebration.

Friend, don't be deceived that worldliness is enjoyment. It is evil to join the ungodly (1 Corinthians 15:33). It is actually the way to walk in blindness of the mind for destruction. You will see the glory of God in all your ways. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to remain in the glory of your righteousness

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
